Man City Star and Brazil international Ederson Moraes has signed a new contract with Saudi Club for A shocking fee of £40mllion
Fabrizio Romano says that Man City turned down a £25 million offer for their “amazing” star.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City is unhappy with the latest offer that Al-Nassr made for one of their key players.
Since Pep Guardiola took over as manager of City in 2016, they seem to have made it a policy to let players leave on their own, as long as the club that wants to buy them agrees to pay the fee they expect. This makes their sale policy very clear and simple.
But if Manchester City thinks that the fee doesn’t meet their needs, they will keep talking with the suitor to find the best answer for everyone.
There were rumors last Tuesday that Al-Nassr hoped to sign Ederson Moraes within a week. Some of the big stars that the Saudi Pro League giants can use are Cristiano Ronaldo, Aymeric Laporte, Sadio Mane, and Marcelo Brozovic.
Andy Townsend called Ederson “amazing,” and the club’s official X account shared a picture of him in pre-season training at City.

Romano says that Manchester City “won’t accept this fee,” which means that they turned down Al-Nassr’s first offer of €30 million (£25.2 million) to sign Ederson.

According to the Italian journalist, the 30-year-old has decided to join the club in Saudi Arabia. However, City want more than €50 million (£42 million) to get rid of their club icon.
Romano talked about how the deal now depends on both clubs.
When it comes to Ederson, Manchester City should not back down.
In the end, Manchester City has no reason to sell Ederson this summer, so they should not give in to Al-Nassr’s requests for a higher fee.
The highly praised goalie is still one of the best in the world at his job, and if Al-Nassr signed him, he would be one of the few world-class players coming to the Saudi Pro League.
The fact that Ederson is also very important to Manchester City means that they can ask for more than £42 million to sell him.
So, if Al-Nassr doesn’t want to give in to their requests, City should stand firm and either decide to keep the mysterious goalie or sell him to a better party.
